THIS IS THE FIRST MOVE THAT SHOULD START THE DOWNSWING

[@johnk.atchley5079]

This advice works for me in combination with your video about how you never rush the swing. If you take the faulty movements you exaggerate for purposes of illustration and reduce them by about 85%, you get the error that I make, and probably many others. Early extension and release, which tends to close the club face ever so slightly so that even if you make a good strike the ball will go left of the pin. Which of the two ways you show to get forward shaft lean and a downward attack angle, a lot of rotation or a definite shift of the hips toward the target, may depend on the flexibility of an individual player. For me, at my age of 82, it is the linear forward shift, and the timing of it was perfectly demonstrated in the other video, the one, two, three steps. Just put that into practice today and it worked wonders. Wedges with good contact, good spin and straight at the pin, not on the left edge of the green. So again, thank you.

[@bonpaulobolagao4593]

Hey Russel. I always score in the 100-110 area. But after 2 weeks of practicing with your tips my score drastically went to the break 90 area. Thank you so much for yout tips. I always share your chanel to my golfing buddies so they can improve as well

One of the best videos about golf I have seen so far. I watched it, went to the driving range and saw I learnt something.

[@hello_2.0]

This guy is a genius, one of the few coaches that actually understands how amateurs feel and can give them a way to address it, the visual above the player was very informative

[@russellheritagegolf]

Thank you

[@mikaelantoszyk261]

This guy’s videos are the only ones that have actually made me feel the weight shift and feeling finishing on the left side. I’ve tried every single other video and could never understand it but the two things from these videos that helped the most was the left shoulder working down to start the downswing and low point feeling like it’s at my front foot.

[@roberthood583]

This video was it for me. The above head view was the best thing for my swing and in turn made me realize how much I was casting. I took this to the range this morning and I moved a club up in distance with significantly less effort as a result of this video, and obtaining a descending blow of the golf ball. Thank you, Russell!

[@danielquinlivan7777]

Daniel Quinlivan Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!!!! I have never heard any golf instructor any where make this suggestion to start the downswing. This makes total sense! The light bulb just went on for me. This is my AH HA moment. GREAT JOB!! Thanks

[@russellheritagegolf]

Thanks

[@simplerules101]

Can't get over the level of clarity your explanations have. Brilliant thanks!

[@russellheritagegolf]

[@thomo74]

I really like the top view that shows club head angle and hand position through impact. I come over the top too much, because my right hand wants to be the instigator of the downswing. I’ll give this a go today. Thanks

[@terry91745]

Excellent. The camera view from above your head is brilliant! It's an angle that best demonstrates why, 1. The "bump-squat" move to reestablish center, and 2. How the arms-hands-club "assembly" wrap around a rotating torso into a full finish. You can't allow your arms to muscle the impact. Relaxation of that "assembly" is essential. Russell, I'm, now, finishing with my full weight over my left heel, for the very first time. Thank you! I think youtube is advancing golf instruction by leaps and bounds because it's encouraging instructors to come up with more imaginative ways to demonstrate how to execute three dimensional, complex body movements happening in fractions of a second. Old School teaching pros just tried to "talk" their students through a lesson. You can't teach golf, verbally, then, grab your students club and demonstrate YOUR technique. It does not work! It never has!

[@m0delgado616]

Russell- THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I recently decided to start playing golf again after taking a few years off... I didn't start playing golf until I was in my late 30s and am self-taught. My biggest problem has always been not knowing (or feeling) what I was doing right when I struck the ball solidly and what I was doing wrong when the wheels came off. As you can imagine, this led to bouts of frustration and dissecting my swing, trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. Since I started playing/practising again, my results have been inconsistent. Like so many others, my mind can get clouded with a ton of swing thoughts, i.e. maintain your posture, turn your shoulders, shift your weight to start the downswing, get your left hip out of the way, keep your right shoulder back, etc., etc., etc. This one drill (which can also be a swing thought) is hands-down the best drill I have ever come across because you don't have to think about anything else. Since implementing this drill over the past few days, I have never hit the ball so flush and solid in my life! I do have one short question and am hoping you can take a second to answer- The only club that I am hitting somewhat inconsistently since incorporating this drill is my driver. Should I try to think of "brushing the bottom of my driver" on the 2nd line? Should I also think about keeping my head back/behind impact? My bad miss with my driver is usually a left and low hook, which I have always perceived to be the result of my lower body stopping and my upper body taking over... Thanks again for sharing your golf wisdom with us! Best wishes for good health to you and your family during this pandemic.

[@russellheritagegolf]

It’s hard to say for sure without seeing the swings however I would suggest hitting more down on the ball would help the club face become squared through the impact

[@bamaslaten]

Thank you Russell. I can't wait to try this drill this weekend. I've had a 2-3 year layoff from golf and have found that as I'm reintroducing myself to the game I'm having a difficult time with my sequencing as you explain in the video. I seem to have lost two irons of distance and hope this drill will help me regain the yardage and improve my game. Thanks again. Todd

[@blujay2084]

I've been 'casting' for over 40 years. Minimal lag. Have had numerous attempts to fix over the years. Am pretty sure I fall into your second category. "Intent" I like it. December 6. MIchigan. April would be better. I guess I need to make some room in the garage.

[@russellheritagegolf]

Awesome have a good go

[@suri7075]

Been struggling with clean pure contact on and off since I started playing golf. Tried the 2 line drill and the feedback (how the swing should feel) had an immediate effect. I was almost shocked how clean and pure i started to hit the balls after the drill and how my swing thought of where to strike the ball when i was at address was not correct, I also gained distance. Lots of work to do in many other areas but this drill has really helped impact. What i also found was using this 'feel' as a foundation i am able to start to incorporate other swing changes (hips rotation, club shallowing etc.). Thanks Russell, great channel and superb teaching methods!

[@russellheritagegolf]

Excellent thanks for sharing

[@sandafoks7056]

Wow! The best explained downsing ive seen. I can see myself in your first explaination and why i am often hitting the ground too early. Im pushing my hip forward (beginner golfer). It looked exactly like you showed it. Definitely gonna try that drill in my garden :) thank you!!

Thank you

[@markp1956]

Very well explained Russell.........I've been playing for years but have been struggling lately due to bad ball striking......utilizing your drill has helped be make solid contact easily! TY

[@MeMe-gx5il]

Gold dust. Now I know why I always looked like I was 'scooping' the ball at impact. Thank you Russell. My 'chicken wings' are dead!! One of the best tutorials on the internet.

[@reubenvalles917]

Very nice drill to help me with something I struggle with. Went to the range this evening, and after a few mishits this drill had me hitting them flush. It really worked! Now I have to prove I can do it on the course with the ball in the normal position.

[@russellheritagegolf]

Go get them 👍🏻

[@Ipdex]

Absolutely bang on advice Russell. Bang on. I'm off 5 but still inconsistent in ball striking. My key swing thought (which I'm prone to forget when get head full of other stuff..) is 'hit down on the ball'. I find if I focus on that my path improves, the strike improves and I can consciously feel shaft lean rather than a flip at it. I think that is what the 2 lines drill you show on this vid demonstrates. Comments & many tks for these vids man. Best, Russell, Gt.Yarmouth :-)

[@billoliver9814]

Excellent video. Thank you. Unlearning faulty motor movement patterns is, as you are well aware, a challenging task especially if the patterns are entrenched. In this regard there appears much a do on KZbin golf at present regarding the new 'Erikson Bell' training aid which, its advocates claim, encourages not only planar swinging motion but also the 'shift -turn' (or shorn as they call it) rhythm inherent to good swinging. As you are a strong advocate of the 'shift -turn' sequence both on back and forward swings, I wondered what your thoughts on this device are?

[@patrickmurphy4912]

Always appreciate your knowledge which is clearly explained to us Russell. How about practicing by hitting a ball on that 2nd line in lieu?

[@hiltonopaee]

right should dip actually cause the biggest problem of all swing!!! the right hand will take over because of that. Thank so much Russell!!

[@FG-gh7wv]

Thank you Russell for this tip. I hit fat but mostly thin shots. I do not rotate into a good finish. Too much slide. My left leg never really posts up correctly. It stays bent when I slide forward. I will try this and focus on this idea.

[@DansChessLounge]

That from the top view is fantastic. You can really see the movement of the swing from that top view.

[@kevinbachus5887]

The overhead shot synched with the front on view brilliantly demonstrates the two amateur mistakes of early extension and spinning out with the right hip. For the first time I now understand these two mistakes.....I am sure i randomly early extend in one swing and spin out on the next. no wonder I can never find consistency. Cant wait to video my own swing to see if this is the case. Got to figure out how to do an overhead video....You really can see what the hips are doing so much better from this view. This video is so jam packed with nicely presented swing analysis I watched it four times and got something different out of them each time. Many many thanks.

[@peachfreeze1]

This video is gold. Thank you. The thing about spinning out is that the golfer still feels he is starting with the lower body as he should. This demonstrates the difference as well as anything I've seen on youtube. You'd be my first choice of instructor. Props man!

[@toddlittle926]

I really appreciate that your lessons are derived from understanding that people have differences in how they arrive at a result. Reminds me of the fun and value of trying to emulate different pro swing types. Movements that are extreme or opposing convenional but still trying to make a good strike.

[@marcusjohnson488]

That’s excellent. I want to try this at the range. I like the idea of intent rather than positions. Much easier to do. Because l’ll be hitting off grass, I can just draw a couple of lines with an alignment rod and aim for that.

[@alancresswell2701]

[@phillipashby4086]

Great vid Russell, good visual. Ball striking has improved remarkably after coming across one of your previous instructions, for the downswing, sitting on a barstool analogy. Light bulb moment. cheers.

[@russellheritagegolf]

Nice one

[@edgemasterrlol]

OMG 3:21 is EXACTLY my problem. I thought I was early extending because I didn't add enough lag but the reality is that I couldn't rotate my shoulders in a properly manner due to the left pelvis not reaching for the right one giving me space. Now I can rotate freely in order to maintain that lag longer. Thanks for opening my eyes on the root of the problem!!! YASSSS

[@russellheritagegolf]

Go get them 👍🏻

[@FCB877]

Great video indeed. It seems that I have an issue of spinning out (which I did not know even existed) and resulting poor impact is then followed by chicken wing to compensate. Will try 2 lines and hope it does the magic :),

[@petel3366]

Russell - What’s best route to get your opinion on video swings? Thanks

[@fishblade2]

I would like to ask a follow up question here. So I have a decent transition on the downswing. I am obtaining an open area for my arms to swing through and am getting okay compression. My question though is I start with my hand almost in like with the shaft. In other words I’m close to one plane swing and the only way with compression and proper positioning on my downswing that I can hit the ball instead of blading it is to have a decent size dip of my head. How are people able to get great compression and not have that dip in their head?

[@Cyril_Squirrel]

I find it useful to simply straighten my left leg as the beginning of the downswing. That works for me with the benefit that it's just one thought rather than thinking about sequence.

[@ufukgoksu9851]

Hi Russell, I put the ball in the middle for iron shots. Are you saying I should take the ball more forward to the leading foot?

LOVE the camera view "from the ceiling"!!!!

[@boonukem]

When I first tried this drill with a ball, my instincts were telling me I couldn't hit the second stripe because the ball was in the way. Like the ball was a brick wall or something. The painted stripe makes a very vivid image and helped me to get over that feeling. After a few swings I got over that feeling, and it does feel like I am hitting through the ball instead of stopping at the ball. So far I've used it to hit foam balls in my backyard, and once at the driving range and the results were pretty good. Looking forward to see how well it holds up on the golf course.

[@russellheritagegolf]

Awesome and thanks for sharing

[@richardbolen1929]

Hello Russell I am a flippy poor contact with irons golfer for a LONG time. Everyone knows my impact position is off. It happens so fast no one can fix it. We discuss it a lot. Sheer determination and good short game I can compete at 62 with younger fellas. My distance can vary 20 yds any iron if I get lucky and pure one. Your point about the position of the left shoulder in line with left ankle and hands at impact and the hit ahead drill to feel it......BRILLIANT! BRILLIANT! Fixed my swing. Distance and power. Consistent. I have watched this one video 10 times. You absolutely cannot think about it in the swing but you better know what impact should look and feel like to get in the proper position. I never had done so until today. A mirror is also helpful. Thanks for painting a great picture. Again brilliant. Did I say brilliant? Cheers! Many thanks from Texas Richard

Great drill - the aiming point described is perfect for a mid iron but should move backward or forward depending on the length of shaft (and person swinging it) - longer shaft back - shorter shaft forward

[@rayrapp8929]

I have a stone patio in my back garden! Seriously, I will give this a try in the nets at my club. I wonder, rather than painting two white lines could this drill work by placing the ball to be hit further forward?

For sure 👍🏻

[@davemack]

One other thing ... any suggestion how the intention could be changed to suit driver as I suspect "hit the second line" is only suitable for shots of the ground or a very low tee? Maybe "miss the second tee"? (Thinking of the drill were you put a tee ahead of the ball to encourage a positive angle of attack.)

Not necessarily but I’ll be doing drills really soon in the channel for driver

[@blackie75]

Hi Russell, just a quick question for you. At the start of the downswing, is the feeling that the arms and club are moving together as one corporate unit down in front of the body, with the right elbow feeling as though it's leading the rest of the arm? Love your vids btw, great content.

[@russellheritagegolf]

This is hard to answer because you can still process a conscious thought at this time so your essentially aware of whatever you want to think about. The idea would be to think about the problem you have?! I hope this helps

[@davee3951]

I've found a way to get this kind of impact consistently, with a very simple lower body downswing sequence. This move allows me to keep the arms very relaxed through impact and hit a lot of solid shots. All I use as a downswing trigger is a small turn of the bottom of the pelvis target ward, followed by a feel of lightly pressuring the back of the left heel, into the turf like it had a knife attached to it. The old "squash a can with the heel," thought never worked for me but this does.

[@ronaldmorissey8493]

Great feel.

[@stephenrose4582]

​@@stephenrose4582 .....At the time that I made this move, I was thinking about the bottom of my front zipper turning towards the target.

[@stephenrose4582]

@@davee3951 Thank you for your reply. I like your original thought of turning the bottom of the front zipper. To be honest, I have two concerns about the advice in the link: (1) looks good for driver, but it seems like it would be difficult to cover the ball to compress iron shots, and more importantly (2) such a curvature of the spine while twisting at high speed looks like it would eventually lead to back injuries. I believe that is why the reverse ‘C’ has become out of favor.

[@davee3951]

@@stephenrose4582 Good comments on the link. I think that the demonstration is a bit exaggerated. I don't have enough swing speed to get into that much of a reverse 'C' and tend to finish upright and balanced over the lead food. This move works very well for me with ground shots. I agree that it's a counter-intuitive move but for some reason it works for me, and no problems with back pain.

[@gwilson453]

Thanks for a great video. I can hit the second line really well, I can actually hit balls successfully this way too. Problem is when I go back and try to hit the first ball that I’m set up to I hit maybe 8 out of 10 fat or thin. With the drill when I’m set up for the first ball and hit the second I can hit 9 out 10 right out the middle. I’ve been doing it for two weeks now and not sure if that’s not long enough or if there’s something else I could try. Any help would be great. Thank you.

fantastic explanation

[@bobbyforster6686]

When I move over to the left side at impact, i t feels like I'm past the ball and can't get the face square. This results in open clubface with the driver and weak off center hits.

[@TimC887]

Same problem…sort of. I have always tended to slide my hips to the left, instead of rotating, in an attempt to move my low point in front of the ball. My left hip doesn’t rotate out of the way and my left arm has no where to go so it buckles and collapses along with a hand flip at impact to square the club. Ugh! Inconsistent ball striking, weak power and adding loft is the result. 😩
